What are your tactics to win this year’s Santa Winter Games?

I will bring good cheer, enthusiasm, special Santa skills and years of experience. Despite being relatively young ( aged 54) I have been Santa for many years, first putting on the Red Suit and Beard when I was in my early twenties. For the last 21 years, I have been the

Official Santa Claus for my City of Perth, Western Australia, taking part in Parades and a variety of Christmas events hosted by the City and Lord Mayor. In my other professional life, I am a Storyteller for children and adults, so I have many Christmas Stories to tell, if there is a visit to children who can understand a little English! I also come equipped with a unique Santa Hand Bell, commissioned by the Swan Bells of Perth and the City of Perth, cast and finished by a Bell Foundry in London. It has a beautiful sound and wherever I ring it, it sounds out the special magic of Christmas to every ear. I also have a good singing voice, which is a great help to Santa! I usually wear fur-trimmed short pants when I’m in Perth, but I

think I may have to bring long red socks when I visit Gallivare!

Other Information: i pride myself on being as real as I can be when I become Santa. I am always happy to hear children tell their parents that at last they have got to meet the "Real" Santa. And Parents say this too! I also come with a very talented Santa Helper! She can sing and dance and is usually a basket of sweets, which helps to make her even more popular with children!
